It can be best descried as a political thriller adventure game in the USSR before the collapse. As far as I recall, the difficulty was hellish at times but it had a very good story. It was also running on time, with meetings at specific times taking place, which meant you actually HAD to be at that time at a specific time or the game was lost. I think me and my friend filled up a notebook with notes when we played this.

Have to say, I am a fan of FMV (if well acted) and one advantage like the Tex games is that FMV games wear better than most over time. I have replayed Spycraft a few times since I first played it ... years back and it still intrigues.

So go for it If you liked Conspiracy you will definitely enjoy the story and reality based gameplay in Spycraft. If you prefer pure stand alone logic puzzles like in Myst based games - might not grab you. But if you like plot - logical based challenges at all - this is a great example to play.

And thanks, Jenny for the dos-box set up link for the game. Have to dust it off and give it another whirl, myself.
